Proper way to sign an APK built with Cordova/Phonegap 3.0 without using Eclipse

[Rafael Agostini]

Hi,

Everytime I use the command:

$ cordova build android

It builds some APK files like: AppName-unaligned.apk and AppName-debug.apk, so, how can I tell Cordova/Phonegap to sign an APK without using Eclipse and what APK I need to sign, unaligned or debug one?

And, did you know if there's a way to automate that signed-APK export?

Untested, but this should do the job:

1. in platforms/android/, create a file called ant.properties, and add your keystore path and alias name:

     key.store=/path/to/keystore/keystore_name.keystore

     key.alias=alias_name

2. run 

    cordova build android --release 

It should prompt for the keystore password. The resulting APK will be at platforms/android/ant-build/AppName-release.apk.
